Marshland taxidermy on kirkman street in lake charles....12$ an inch they did one and currently are finishing another up...both do great work...

I hope you really don't mind the price if you bring it to the Germans. I looked at some of their mounts, and some were good and others...well not so good. I'd look elsewhere.

We are also looking for someone. I think I'm going to bring ours to Mike Landrenaux from Bayou Chicot. He mounted my bass and it came out super awesome, looks like the same fish exactly, but the only bad thing is that it doesn't have a lifetime warranty. Our trout were caught in Vermillion Bay and are very dark tinted unlike most Big Lake trout, which are more white and gray, and so far I haven't seen any mounts were the trout were dark tinted so it makes chosing a taxidermist hard. I wish you goodluck in the search of a taxidermist

Marshland x100. My bass is the best Ive seen.

Never mounted a fish but Marshland did an awesome job on 2 deer for me and at a great price compared to Germans.

Buddy just got a 7 pounder that he caught with me this February back from taxidermist in Lafayette, Henry Barker. Came out very nice. I will give him a shot on my next one. But I hear German is top notch. Have seen a few of his mounts and they look great.

Josh does the fish mounts
...Best around this area and 80% of the locals use the Germans for Mounts

My bass from Marshland. Sorry for poor pic quality. Just had my dad take a pic and send it. Awesome mount though.

Rock @ marshlands has done a couple trout for me and I am very happy with the fish. Don't see how they could get any better as long as you preserve the fish properly. Always brought mine in ASAP. Here's the one I have on my phone.
I've seen a lot of trout mounts that'll have a squared belly To me that isn't natural.
Found a pic of one with a squared belly. U can see what I'm talking about
